i just put a floppy drive in my pc, how do i use it? I googled it and 1 website said use mount. How do i do that? Also do i need to install it or something?

bruenig

swedekid, click on the iso, when it asks you what to do, just click to save to disk, then come back here

Rei-chan

ack, no, don't open the .iso... Use a program like Nero or DVD Decrypter to burn it to a disk. Yeah, just save it to disk.

kazuka

this sucks

nunya

bruenig I think he already has it saved

kkrusty

bruenig: yeah i think thats because of automatix. I'll postpone upgrading for another day.

Ryan: u have to mount it live mount -t auto /dev/fd0

!automatix

ubotu

automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

Nunya, my bet is that he clicked on it and then chose open with imgburn from firefox instead of save to disk or something like that

kazuka
